The main reason is that I'm still on the road, and I really want to spend the time and test those patches, as I'm still not sure about the use of them. I'm scared because this is not an option that a distro can enable in their releases, and that bad things can happen to people's data if they are not careful. Also I feel that the number of legit users for such a thing is so small that I wonder if it is really worth it. So these are still in my queue, I just want to give them some serious scrutiny. > The infrastructure added for USB-persist is also used for a new type of > quirks entry (devices which need to be reset when they resume).

Sure, if you want to rework it that way, I was holding off applying those other patches as the dependancy was there. If by doing that, we get that new feature in sooner, it would probably be much better. thanks, greg k-h ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by DB2 Express Download DB2 Express C - the FREE version of DB2 express and take control of your XML.
